Hello, I am having an issue with specifying a custom build type for my multi-module android project. Basically I want to add a third buildType called review like so

register("review") {
    isDebuggable = false
    isMinifyEnabled = false
}

But when I go to actually build the app, I get a significant amount of errors and warnings having to do with my other modules not containing the review buildType (errors in thread). I have attempted to add the same build type to all modules with no luck, as well as trying missingDimensionStrategy in my app module and still no change. What am I missing to add a custom build type to a multi module app?

@Zach Try

create("review") {
    isDebuggable = false
    isMinifyEnabled = false
}
